Apps for this that and the other.

Snowie

Ok so these days its seems every one has a smart phone and if you don't....

Good work and fair play Unfortunatly I broke..... How ever for those that do you often here of people saying this apps awesome and that apps even better and so on and so forth.

Im just wondering whats your personal favorite app and why?
I think its a good place as theres a diversity of people so could be kinda interesting also games don't count because there a game..

For me its Camera Plus or Tune In radio...or whatsapp

so whats yours ?

looksee

Haven't established what an app is yet. Still I don't have an iphone so it doesn't much matter.

Jen Pigs Fly

I don't have a smart phone.

I'm too clumsy to own a phone that's worth over €50 ...

mackg

stumble upon and draw something are my favourites.

Dravokivich

I don't get the facination with "Apps" on phones to be honest. Whatsapp is handy, but I could do without it as I could use another IM app easily enough.

From there then, you've just got a load of various games.

KeithM89_old

They need to open rehab clinics for Draw Something. But im fairly amazing at it.

Soundhound to find the name of a song aswell.

Praetorian Saighdiuir

I use "Hey Tell" a lot, its great craic.

Also the "Pedo Monitor" App

Jesus Shaves

favourite app at the moment is radio soulwax for the iphone/pad

Recommend anyone who likes dance music to download it

Anyway, Paper Camera is my favourite at the moment.

tan11ie

Whatsapp is my fav.

branbee

Dublin bus app! Boring as it may be!

Born to Die

I still have to find an app that adds anything worthwhile to my life.

But that's what my right hand is for.

depends, for photos, Photosynth is amazing, it takes perfect panoramic pics and stitches them together seamlessly, and its free, if you have an iphone, get it.

netflix, 4OD, the bbc and rte players are handy to have if you have a decent data allowance.

viber, whatsapp, eirtext for texting

if you have a 4s, get Filmic Pro, Movie Looks and iMovie, turn your phone into a portable video editing station, its the job, this was shot on a phone and edited with them:

TuneIn Radio is magnificent, haven't found an App that can top that.

Shryke

I use Seesmic for Twitter and I think it's fantastic. I never understood the real appeal of Twitter but on a mobile device it makes great sense.

Tune In Radio would be my other fav at the minute.

Google Sky Map is legendary. It's really simple but great to just stare at. If you're a little nerdy you'll get a kick out of it. It shows the location of stars and planets and the like. Just point the phone at the sky.

Then mostly news feeds. I also like Google Translate. It makes perfect sense as an app. You'd never be stuck wherever you were.

I have my first smart phone almost a week and it is loads of fun and pretty practical. It's killed the need for me to get at a PC or laptop except when I want to watch movies or TV shows.

Ghandee

Sky plus is great, if you let's say, read in the paper that something its on TV tonight and you fear you'll either forget to record it, or know you'll not be home in time, you can access your sky personal planner and set it to record.

shazam is great for music I'd's.

TeresaDarling

Stickman 2, prize claw, word drop, paper toss has gone on a world tour instead of a toilet, they are my favs age 46,

my kids favs are age 6, chocpizza, mathmagic, dolls house, more toast, sundae maker but i had to pay to unlock the worms and spiders

my 13 year old likes canknockdown, strikeknight, the cube and table tennis and says fifa12 is not bad

I am one of the mammys who got an ipad for Xmas, next year I am gonna learn to write code

Swampy

Netflix

grindle

LogMeIn: great as either a remote control for my pc when I'm watching movies, shows or listening to music at home, or for finding and downloading all those while at work.

TouchOSC: turns your device into a midi controller, which controls music software.

Shazam: everyone knows this one. Find out what that song is, derp.

Mixologist: Cocktail recipes. Three Black&Tans and an Irish Car Bomb please!

Stanza: E-Book app, works with Calibre, which batch converts between formats.

The nerd in me is intensely turned on. I am mostly nerd, so I basically have a boner.

:eek:, jaysus! no more hanging around schools for me.

Kamjana

Whatsapp is my most used app,also flightradar is handy enough if you ever wondered where the plane in the sky above you is going.

Senna

As boring as it is, my favourite app is the RTE news app, i check it about 20 times per day.

skinsseries3

AIB Mobile, handy if you have a passion for regular reminders of impending personal debt crisis/scaring the sh*t out of yourself.

Pulse news and viber

Snowie

my problem with Shazam is

OOOO i love this song pulls phone out slide to unlock enter codes looks for ap turns on app waits for app to load

ooo

wait the songs over on the tele or radio

thomur

Shift Worker because I work shifts
Walkmeter as I walk a lot
Pinball HD is great for pinball nerds
Scramble for people of my generation

Immaculate Pasta

There are some very good Apps out there but I rarely use any of them really. Most of them I download and forget to use or just use the internet instead.

I think my iPhone is finally dead today after 2 years. It's been a while coming and I'm thinking of going a step back in technology and just getting a regular phone. I'd like to think I can get buy without all these apps etc. Also I hate people being glued to them the whole time.

but the apple filetype is .app, thats where the terminology came from, otherwise you'd be calling windows programs .exes.

"there's an exe for that" doesnt have the same ring to it anyway.

they're just trying to be smart arses by calling programs apps - apps as in applications.

Bunch of homo's they are

OldGoat

Guitar tuner for tuning things and LightMeter for metering light.

NiallFH

Probs have to be my Battle.net authenticator, saved me paying for one and waiting on delivery.

Also get a good bit of use from the flash light app (Turns the camera flash on and keeps it on)

I have a BB torch, the apps are fairly crap, hence a flash light being one of my most used

Cianos

The torch

preddy

TV Forcast - Tells ya the broadcast date for all my shows episodes.

Game - Temple Run at the moment.

Ass App, you shake your phone and it shakes her booty.
Hmm - work paid for this actually, I wonder will it show on the next bill
AssApp purchase :rolleyes:

krudler

oh, game wise, Cut The Rope is essential, addictive little game and loads of fun

I rarely use them.. I use the internet on it constantly like right now but apps just don't do it for me.

hattoncracker

I sell smartphones for a living.. The middle aged people who have kids abroad get whatsapp, cabbage and viber downloaded.

For me personally as I have android, app2sd, cabbage (android webtext app), whatsapp, draw free (addict), aldiko (ebook app), RTE news, and alarmdroid (which makes you do a maths sum before u can turn off your alarm in the morning.)

Cee-Jay-Cee

Jelly SMS
Whatsapp
Viber
Plane Finder
iSpy (I could spend hours on it simply watching live CCTV footage from around the world)

Basq

Rarely use apps to be honest... some of the news ones are good, but not much else.

Although in saying that I'm just putting the finishing touches on my first app now... although I have a feeling Apple are gonna reject it.
